Why does my eight week old dachshund pup nose my nose with hers?

When I pick her up or hold in front of me she pokes my nose with hers real quick. She will do this often. I wonder why? Any suggestions? Thanks.

    This is just the way they express their love and gratitude. It's similar to penguins. This is the way they kiss. :)))

    It's a doggy kiss. Kiss her back. ;-)

    She likes you! It's a bit like licking and she might want to pick up your scent too.

    It's a way of showing friendship. She likes you. If it doesn't bother you, let her continue doing it.

    Hope that helps.
